MOFA strongly condemns PRC Foreign Minister Wang Yi’s misrepresentation of UN Resolution 2758, which risks misleading the international community
MOFA reiterates:
The objective status quo across the Taiwan Strait and the internationally recognized reality is that neither the ROC (Taiwan) nor the PRC is subordinate to the other.
UNGA Resolution 2758 does not mention Taiwan; nor does it confirm Taiwan to be a part of the PRC or authorize the PRC to represent Taiwan in the UN.
The resolution has nothing to do with Taiwan and does not address the issue of Taiwan’s representation in the UN.
MOFA Minister Lin Chia-lung calls on the international community to reject the false PRC reading of the resolution and to condemn PRC provocations and subversion of the regional status quo.
Only Taiwan’s popularly elected government can represent Taiwan in the UN and other international organizations and events.
